Nipah virus in India - banned fruit import in Qatar and other countries

So far seventeen people were killed by the Nipah virus in India .😲 This deadly virus comes from fruit bats who pee on the fruits 🍏 , bite them and leave their saliva on the trees and fruits .

Qatar and many other countries in the region banned the fruit and vegetable import from India .

The travel to Kerala is not recommended .

Good luck to all of us .! I bought on Saturday some mango from the Spar supermarket in Doha .I washed them very well - thinking that it might be infected only by the bat's urine . I did not know about the bites . It might take five - ten days after the contact with the virus that symptoms start to appear .
